Exlporing as we go

This morning we woke to a beautiful layer of fresh snow. It was so bright a clean, and after breakfast and getting our warm clothes on we headed our for an exploration of southeastern Colorado.


 
What we discovered is Cooper LOVES the snow. He romped and ran around. He didn't seem to mind it at all.

 

 Chuck and Cooper getting ready to head out. Cooper is Chuck's wingman!



We have a National Parks Passport Book which we use to find cool places to visit when we travel through different parts of the country.  It is kind of like a visa for national parks, monuments, historic sites, etc., and when you visit a site you get it stamped with the name of the place and the date..

Today we went to Bent's Old Fort National Historic Site near La Junta CO. It was very cool and right on the old Sante Fe trail.




Tomorrow we are heading out early and are aiming to reach Casper WY for the night. From there we hope to knock off the last miles to Tioga on Monday. Thanks for all the prayers for safe travels. It is a comfort knowing we have those and all the good thoughts surrounding us.
